Abstract

Real-time analysis of output volatiles upon UV exposure is achieved using a laboratory scale apparatus. The methods and apparatus use external or internal radiation sources, especially broad band external UV radiation. The apparatus and methods of the invention are especially useful in the analysis and screening of photoresist materials. The apparatus preferably uses FTIR or MS analysis.
